If you listen to what the reviewer says at the 5:49 mark, it pretty much sums up this figure perfectly.

I gather you mean "not much point"?
I'll get him, but not at full price. It's a great mold.

I didn't take the time to watch the review, but does this version come with the transforming gas tanks?

We've got a BINGO!
It is a great mold, but this version is still a waste, even at clearance prices.

I don't believe so.

I saw it in store- no transforming fuel tank guns, or I'd'a jumped on it.
And yeah, the fake battle damage is just black paint. When I do get him on sale/clearance, I'm going to give him real battle damage, such as crumpled panels, holes, tears (as in "being torn", not "crying", altho I imagine it will hurt), etc.

It is if you're fighting BP.
